I would like to know why it is okay for me to pay you $15 a month to be a gold member but not okay for me to create a thread. Seriously?

As this is your first visit to the new forums, it considers you new Your join date shows Apr 2013. The "can't start a new thread until after a specified amount of time" is in place to stop spam bots -- since we've put it in place, there has been virtually no spam. We're happy to remove this for you as you're clearly not a spam bot (and I just have -- log out and back in). Anyone else that's in this boat can send me a forum PM and I can manually remove the restriction.

Speaking of forum visits, I was banned from 22:40 CET until today, with the PW website insisting that I had had too many failed logins. How is this possible, when I'm TECHNICALLY bypassing the login by opening the browser in my subscriptions folder?

P.S. Whoever's going to be working on the ticket I opened during that period doesn't have to bother, it's obviously fixed by now.

Infinite possibilities have implications that could not be completely understood if you turned this entire universe into a giant supercomputer.

You should allow free players to be able to post to your forums as well. I have a legitamite gripe. I sent a request from Support in game about a quest I have been trying to do for 3 days now and can't seem to complete because there is no system which i have to help in the area that the quest says. I send a support ticket in throught the STO game and got a response but I can't access the response because when I go to https://support.perfectworld.com/ it will not keep me logged in and when I hit login, it takes me to a page where I get a 404 error.

I am a player but I refuse to pay for anything in game unless the game is done with testing and is open to the public. I have been svrewed over many times before when I payed for something in game while it was in beta only to have them wipe the characters before opening it to the public.... even though they said they weren't going to, just like you have said.

So the game is in Beta testing and you are not allowing the free players who play to use your forums.....

EVEN THOUGH WE COULD HELP BRING BUGS TO YOUR EYES......

What a stupid way to have a forums for..... You should not restrict access to the forum based on a player's ability to pay. But then this is run by PWI.... and we all know how they love to screw over everyone......

USMC47, first the game has been out since 2010. Second, BranFlakes stated that the restriction is in place to stop spam bots. If they removed that, spam bots would be in here spamming anything and everything from hand soap, viagra, to gold selling spammers.

Second, Cryptic has no control over the customer support, PWE is running that, that is why you wait 3 days + to get into contact with support. Support for the game is autrocious.

This game is not in beta, ask people in the game in /zone to help you out, they are by far more knowledgeable than the GM's in this game apparently, and way more helpful than the support PWE provides.

Cryptic itself cannot control the PWE login, that's all ran by PWE. Don't blame the game company because of the distribution companies apparent lack of any kind of support to the games they distribute. PWE is a Chinese based company, while Cryptic is an American based company.
